Emergence of Treasury Companies: Treasury firms are becoming a significant alternative to U.S.-listed spot Ethereum ETFs, with both groups acquiring approximately 1.6% of total ETH in circulation since June 1, highlighting the growing institutional interest in these treasury companies.
Investor Sentiment and NAV Multiples: The net asset value (NAV) multiple for treasury companies has stabilized above 1, indicating they are fairly priced or undervalued, especially when considering benefits like staking rewards, which may attract investors seeking more dynamic exposure than passive ETFs.
